If the former editor of Mother Jones got a job on Hilary Clinton's white house staff, would that make Mother Jones mainstream? Personally, I don't think it would. There's a difference between influential and mainstream.
If the editor of Mother Jones got David Suzuki elected prime minister and became his chief strategist to the point people were speculating on who was actually in charge of policy decisions, I would say yes, that person/publication has absolutely gone mainstream.
At the bottom of the page it also shows a large amount of women view CP. I have a theory. Japan is big into robots, right? Often female...sex bots, if you will. These sex bots must have gained sentience and are attempting to learn all they can about CP's highly educated population. So we should probably be on the lookout for female sex bots from Japan, in case they are up to something.
I have to agree as well though that the popularity of a Brietbart type site is irrelevant when the POTUS is basically screaming their entire catalogue and his chief advisor is the former owner.
I would say Twitter counts as one of those outlets that everyone tunes into. Especially the President's account.
Gotta agree with Corsi here, Alexa don't lie. Brietbart is a nothing site:
Breitbart on the other hand is ranked 66 in the US and sadly hasn't seen much of a decline in traffic since Trumps win. It is almost as popular as foxnews.com and shouldn't be dismissed as being influential to the Republican base.
Some comparatives in US traffic ranking from Alexa:

"In one conversation, he said he believed in the “Three Percenter” ideology — a form of anti-government activism that pledges resistance against the government on the belief that it has infringed on the Constitution, according to court papers."
A failed anti-government plot from the same type of people Trump enabled during his election campaign. SAD!
Love the sentiment, not a big fan of destroying a nearly 100 year old statue though.
If they want it to be destroyed they should be going about it in a legal manner. I'd like to see any public symbol glorifying any kind of hate be removed anywhere, regardless of "heritage". But rightly or wrongly what they are doing is illegal. This will be used to rile up the white supremacist groups, and could lead to retaliation.
Also, I get what they were doing, but that's destroying public property. Simply cannot go down that road IMO.

In any protest, sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do. We all know who the good guys are in all this, and I see this as a slap in the face to the KKK folks. It's a statue, but it means so much more to them.
